Hi guys

This is my first post & totally out of desperation. I've installed Fedora 7 on VMware and I do not know how to install the tools. I've tried this method used on Ubuntu & Kubuntu with no success: -
sudo su -
cd /tmp
cp /media/cdrom/VMwareTools-*.tar.gz ./
tar zxvpf VMwareTools-*.tar.gz
cd vmware-tools-distrib
./vmware-install.pl

WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME.

Thank you in advance :) :) :)
